DFW-ScaleFest 5 June ===> now with PICS!!

[Scooterman]

And just to confirm that they were there, SC and Rotor.  Tuck also dropped by to say hey, but he's camera shy.

Overall the show wasn't too bad.  Bit of a cluster being in a new venue, but plenty of bargins were to be had and the stand got LOTS of traffic and lookie-loos.  No real JNMs this year.  Pity.  They're always good for a laugh when they leave.

I was bummed because there were no JMNs to pick on. That was the reason for the look on my face in the picture. But one of Scoot's friends had a bit of a challenge getting into the spirit of the table:

"What if? What if what?" Scoot's response: "Open you mind........" (I think Tony was holding back;))

My stuff is all Braille-Scale- 1/144 scale. The modernized attack Vigilante was the most fun to build. Scoot's SAAF Mirage 2000 was new to me, Tony had a bunch of new stuff, from the Japanese Predator UAV and the Hughes HK-1 in Coastal Command colors which was F-ing brilliant.

Good stuff guys.

Love the Speeder Bike

I had that kit and a similar idea years ago only mine was going to be what happened to all those surplus speeder bikes after the rebellion?  Was going to use one of the Tamiya Pit Crew guys and have him tinkering with his personal racer (think street racer).  But, as with most of my ideas, never got anywhere with it and finally sold the kit.

So, do we get to see this Cock made up in the future?

No, I had to put the Cock away.  Pity.  The world needs to see more of that Cock.

And best Cock jokes that stemmed from that massive 1/72 kit at Squadron:

"I thought I was going to bend over to get that Cock, but it was on the lowest shelf so I got on my knees to take it."
"Hey, that Cock came in a box. A really big box."

We are a very disturbed group of individuals.

Ahhh... sure love those NATO-issued codenames

I hate to bother, but is that a camouflaged Jigabachi in the center of this photo?  Between the Fedex Sonic Cruiser and the F-32?

[Scooterman]

Yep.  Another Rotorhead project.  Made it sit tricycle and removed the cannon stinger IIRC.  Don't have a better pic.  I'm fighting terrible alergies at the mo', and wasn't feeling very hot at the show so I'm sorry for my lack of pics.

Good stuff guys  Sorry I could not make it this year I do believe I will be going to the Nats though

Yes,
left off the 'stinger' pod and the gatling gun, rearranged the u/c, and some other small mods.

[MiB]

Excuse me sir, where is the tail rotor? 

[sotoolslinger]
